  1. postmortem

    ### **Summary** On June 23, 2026, QStash users in the EU-CENTRAL-1 region experienced elevated latency and degraded performance. The issue was caused by a regression introduced in a recent enhancement to Flow Control scheduling logic. The change increased resource consumption under load, leading to reduced performance on affected shards. The incident was resolved by rolling back to the previous stable version. ### **Impact** * Service: QStash \(EU-CENTRAL-1\) * Start: 2026-06-23 16:22 UTC * Resolved: 2026-06-23 17:14 UTC * Duration: ~52 minutes * Impact: Increased latency and degraded performance for workloads routed to the affected instance in the EU. Multiple customers in the region experienced slower request processing during the incident window. ### **Root Cause** We recently deployed an enhancement to our Flow Control feature, designed to improve fairness between independent flow controls when unused global parallelism capacity was available. Under production load, the new behavior introduced a regression that significantly increased resource utilization. The elevated resource consumption caused performance degradation on the affected QStash instamce, impacting all workloads sharing that instance. ### **Resolution** After identifying the regression as the source of the slowdown, we rolled back the deployment to the last known stable version. * Rollback completed: 2026-06-23 19:18:46.84 UTC Following the rollback, system performance returned to normal levels and service stability was restored. ### **Preventive Actions** To reduce the likelihood of similar incidents in the future, we are taking the following actions: * Expand performance and load testing coverage for Flow Control changes. * Add resource utilization regression checks to the deployment pipeline. * Improve monitoring and alerting for abnormal CPU and memory consumption patterns. * Introduce additional canary validation before wider production rollout of scheduler-related changes. We apologize for the disruption and appreciate our customers’ patience while we resolved the issue.

QStash Service Disruption in the EU Region

  1. postmortem

    ## What happened A configuration change applied to QStash's EU networking layer introduced an outbound connectivity fault. Between **09:11 and 09:45 UTC**, a subset of QStash instances had degraded egress connectivity, and some dispatched messages may have failed on their initial attempt. A related side effect caused some servers to egress from IP addresses outside QStash's advertised outbound range until **11:24 UTC**; during that window, endpoints enforcing QStash IP allowlists may have rejected requests from those servers. QStash's automatic retries delivered many affected messages on subsequent attempts once connectivity was restored, and QStash is now operating normally. ## Customer impact Impact was limited to the EU region and to two effects within the window above: * **Delivery delays / failures** _\(09:11 – 09:45 UTC\)_ — messages dispatched through affected instances may have failed on their first attempt. Thanks to automatic retries with backoff, most were re-delivered once connectivity recovered; messages that exhausted their retry policy during the window followed their configured failure path \(e.g., DLQ / failure callback\). * **Allowlist rejections** _\(09:11 – 11:24 UTC\)_ — customers who restrict inbound traffic to QStash's outbound IP ranges may have seen requests from the affected servers rejected. Customers who do not enforce source-IP allowlisting were unaffected by this. ## Root cause A routine networking configuration change contained an error that: 1. disrupted outbound connectivity on the affected nodes, and 2. caused affected nodes to acquire outbound IPs outside the advertised range. The underlying gap was systemic: the change procedure had no automated validation gate to catch the faulty state before it reached production. ## What we've done * **Fail-fast pre-checks** — automated validation now halts the change procedure _before it runs_ if a configuration would degrade connectivity or violate expected state. * **Egress IP-range enforcement** — outbound IP assignments are now checked against the advertised QStash range, so a node can no longer come online with an unadvertised IP. * **Tighter post-change verification** — completion now confirms outbound reachability and egress-IP conformance across affected nodes. ## Customer action None required. All QStash traffic again originates from the advertised outbound IP ranges. We apologize for the disruption.

  2. resolved

    We identified an outbound networking issue affecting a subset of QStash server instances in the EU region between 2026-06-19 09:11 UTC and 2026-06-19 09:45 UTC. During this period, some requests dispatched by QStash may have failed. The issue has been resolved, and QStash is currently operating normally. We will publish a postmortem with additional details as soon as it is available. Update: We identified that one QStash server had been assigned an outbound IP address outside of the configured QStash IP range. This remained the case until 2026-06-19 11:24 UTC. Endpoints that restrict access based on QStash outbound IP allowlists may have rejected requests from this server during this period.

    On May 12th and 13th at various times, a subset of Upstash Redis instances on [Fly.io](http://Fly.io) experienced intermittent hangs and elevated error rates. The Redis process would stall inside a logging syscall — alive but not making progress — which made the issue hard to spot from our usual telemetry. After investigating with Fly's team, we identified the root cause as a bad interaction between a recent guest kernel update on Fly's newer machines and an upstream Cloud Hypervisor bug \([cloud-hypervisor#7672](https://github.com/cloud-hypervisor/cloud-hypervisor/issues/7672)\) affecting log writes from inside the VM. We mitigated by disabling the affected logging paths, and Fly has since rolled out a hypervisor-side patch, fully resolving the issue. No data was lost. Sorry for the disruption.

  1. postmortem

    **Root Cause Analysis** On **April 24**, we deployed a more optimized scheduler implementation in the **US East \(N. Virginia\)** region. On **May 8**, a user who had active schedules deleted their account. Under normal behavior, scheduled tasks associated with a deleted account should wake up, detect that the account no longer exists, and exit after performing cleanup. Due to a bug introduced in the new scheduler implementation, this code path did not return early as intended. Execution continued and resulted in a nil pointer dereference. A second issue then amplified the impact. When a panic occurs in the scheduler, it is designed to be recovered, logged, and isolated so that the process remains healthy. Because of another bug in the panic recovery path, the panic was not properly caught, which caused the worker process handling the scheduled job to terminate. After that process exited, another worker picked up responsibility for delivering the same scheduled task. Since the same faulty execution path was still present, that worker also failed. This created a cascading failure pattern across workers attempting to process the affected schedules. **Resolution** We deployed two fixes: * Added the missing early return in the deleted-account cleanup path, preventing the nil pointer dereference. * Corrected the panic recovery logic so that future panics are safely recovered, logged, and reported without causing worker processes to terminate. With these changes in place, the affected execution path is now safe. Even if a future bug triggers a panic in this area, it will be isolated and reported rather than causing process-level failure.

    # **Incident Postmortem: Scheduled Jobs Inconsistency in US Region** On May 1, 2026, we experienced an incident affecting a subset of schedules in the US region following a recent infrastructure update. The issue has been resolved, and all affected schedules have been restored. ## **Summary** As part of an ongoing scalability improvement, we recently updated scheduling infrastructure in the US region to a new architecture. During this transition, a legacy execution path remained in the codebase as a fallback mechanism. On May 1, a bug caused the system to revert to the legacy path. This resulted in inconsistent state between the old and new scheduling systems for some users. ## **Impact** The incident affected a limited number of users in the US region. **Most users were not affected**, and the vast majority of schedules continued operating normally throughout the incident. Users who did not update schedules during the transition window continued operating normally throughout the incident. **A subset of users who created, edited, paused, or deleted schedules between April 24 and May 1 may have experienced one or more of the following:** * Schedule updates not being reflected * Paused schedules becoming active again * Deleted schedules reappearing * Newly created schedules not executing as expected Schedules created after the transition may have stopped executing briefly before recovery. ## **Root Cause** During the transition, the new scheduling infrastructure became the source of truth for schedule state. Due to a bug, the system unexpectedly reverted traffic to the legacy scheduling path, which began accepting updates independently from the new system. This caused the two systems to diverge and resulted in inconsistent schedule state for affected users. ## **Resolution** After identifying the issue, we: 1. Restored the new scheduling system as the active source of truth 2. Reconciled data between the legacy and new systems 3. Updated missing schedule changes back into the new infrastructure 4. Performed conflict resolution to preserve user data and schedule continuity In some cases, schedules that had previously been paused or deleted were restored to avoid permanent data loss. ## **Preventive Measures** We are implementing several changes to prevent similar incidents: * Removing obsolete fallback execution paths after transitions complete * Adding automated safeguards and alerts for unexpected system fallback behavior * Improving consistency validation between systems * Expanding rollback and reconciliation testing We apologize for the disruption and appreciate everyone’s patience while we resolved the issue.

    On March 6, between approximately 13:44–14:07 UTC, some databases experienced elevated latency and connection errors in the Tokyo \(ap-northeast-1\) region. The issue was caused by a sudden spike in traffic that significantly increased network utilization and connection load on a subset of nodes. Our team mitigated the incident by scaling up capacity in the region and redistributing load across additional nodes. Service recovered once the additional capacity was brought online. Resolution We have increased the number of machines in the Tokyo region to provide additional headroom and reduce the likelihood of similar incidents during traffic spikes. Next Steps We are continuing to review capacity safeguards and connection-handling limits to improve resilience against sudden traffic surges.

    Impact: A subset of clients connecting through the eu-central-1 region experienced increased error rates and timeouts when accessing certain databases. Clients in us-west-2 were also briefly affected. The issue was limited in scope and did not impact other regions. Root Cause: During an ongoing migration to improve database routing reliability, a configuration step was applied inconsistently across regions. Resolution: Our monitoring alerted us within minutes, and the migration was promptly rolled back for the affected regions. Service definitions were restored, and normal database connectivity resumed by 15:08 UTC. Next Steps: We are reviewing our migration process to ensure consistency across all regions and adding additional safeguards to prevent similar issues in the future.

    A routine system maintenance operation at the OS level led to the application of system updates across multiple EC2 instances in our clusters in several AWS regions. These updates included changes to networking components, which inadvertently triggered restarts. As a result, several EC2 nodes failed health checks and temporarily dropped out of the cluster, disrupting high availability and causing partial connectivity issues for some clients and operations. We have since reproduced the issue in a controlled environment and verified the root cause. To prevent a recurrence, we are updating our node maintenance strategy to ensure greater control over the timing and impact of system-level changes and excluding networking components from automated upgrades.

    ### Product: QStash ### Incident Summary Due to high load, the volume of QStash event logs reached to a point which caused latency in the underlying data store operations. Event log creation was slowed down and lead to performance degradation in QStash request processing. In order to resolve the performance degradation in QStash requests, event logging module was turned off temporarily. After deploying a hot fix and configuration changes, we eventually turned on event logging and system went back to stable state again. ### Root Cause At 07:15 UTC we received alerts on the performance degradation and started the investigation. We discovered long running queries for synching event logs from main QStash servers to QStash event server. In order to resolve performance degradation, we turned off event logging functionality as an immediate action. This action turned the performance back to normal levels for QStash requests but left event log processing disabled. We deployed a hotfix during the day to remove some redundant calls and alleviate the impact. Around 16:20 UTC, we observed another performance degradation on QStash requests due to a load increase, and disabled event log processing again. In the following hours, we deployed a configuration change to relax the job interval durations for event log tasks and turned on event logging again. This configuration change helped to resolve the performance issues without any further issues. ### Impact During the problematic timeframes, when the slow event log processing was observed, QStash requests experienced high latency and caused timeouts for customers. No events were lost. Duplicate event deliveries were observed due to a number of restarts during the incident. ### Resolution Improvements are applied to the event logging module to prevent the same issue from happening again. Also, we have planned to upgrade underlying disks to stronger models.

  2. resolved

    QStash service and Event logs are fully functional without any remaning issues.

    On 09:43 UTC, QStash experienced degraded service when a high number of requests to a specific domain were throttled, resulting in timeouts during an unexpected phase of the TCP connection establishment. These requests and resulting retries triggered excessive consumption of network resources and negatively impacted all users. We have added more resources to QStash as a quick remediation and as for the resolution, we have improved the timeout mechanism to detect and fail-faster in such cases.

    ### Incident Summary During a maintenance update to the regional Upstash Redis databases in AWS eu-west-1, several databases hosted in that region has unnecessarily triggered a full synchronisation between their primary and backup replicas. ### Root Cause A full synchronisation is the invalidation of the whole data in the target replica and starting a fresh re-population from the source replica. Under normal circumstances, full synchronisation is required only in cases where the data integrity is lost in one of the replicas, which was not the case here. ### Impact This incident impacted the performance of regional databases on AWS eu-west-1 only. Full synchronisation has caused a very high CPU load and caused a performance degradation on some of the databases that has a replica in this region. Moreover, our system throttles the databases that are going through this operation to allocate more CPU to the synchronisation to finish it sooner. No data or consistency has been lost. ### Resolution As a quick remediation, we have unthrottled affected databases on 15:06UTC and enabled more throughput, however high latency has still been observed until the full synchronisation is completed on 21:23UTC. A fix has been prepared to avoid this unnecessary full synchronisation on regional databases, and will be deployed shortly. This issue is not present on Upstash Global databases, which is our new generation infrastructure and is now our default offering. We will reach out to our regional users on how to migrate to Upstash Global going forward.

    **Product:** QStash **Impact:** Degraded performance, delayed processing of events, and duplicate event deliveries for some customers ## Incident Summary QStash experienced an incident marked by a sudden and extreme load on our servers. This caused a degradation in performance, with extremely high latency for event processing for all users. We also noticed some of the events being delivered multiple times to some of the users. To mitigate the high load, we have increased the capacity as our initial response while investigation proceeds. Eventually, fixes for the issues are confirmed with an issue reproducer and deployed to production. ## Root Cause Analysis In a certain type of usage, failure handling of [failureFunction](https://upstash.com/docs/workflow/basics/serve#failurefunction) can cause recursive calls which causes a leak in the queue of the tasks, causing a severe load on the QStash servers. This also triggered an edge case which caused some of the events to be delivered multiple times. ## Resolution Two hotfixes to the QStash processes are deployed 1. Prevent recursive calls within the failure function. 2. Eliminate duplicate deliveries while keeping "at least once delivery" guarantee. These are verified to successfully resolve the root cause, normalizing server load and restoring standard event processing operations. ## Impact on Customers High latency of event processing is observed for all users. Some users received duplicate event deliveries. No events were lost, and all were delivered as part of our "at least once delivery" guarantee. Customers do not need to take any corrective action, as workflows have returned to normal and preventive fixes are deployed.
